Climate change sends Chile's wine industry southward

The predicament for one of Chile's most prized industries, wine-making, is emblematic of how a hotter world is forcing a deep rethinking of economics and livelihoods as nearly 200 nations meet in Paris this month to try to work out a global accord to slow climate change, reports Reuters.

"You can continue to plant tomatoes, beans, etcetera, if temperatures rise, but not the grape varieties we have today," said wine-maker Miguel Torres. "We must find other varieties that are more resistant to high temperatures and drought."
